A Christian Intellectual Fellowship
Mythic Mind
Pursuing Wisdom through Primary and Secondary Worlds
A community for Christians who want to read deeply, think seriously, and explore the great questions of human life through philosophy, theology, literature, myth, film, and video games.
Fall 2026
What does it mean to become a self?
This fall, Mythic Mind is turning inward. Across our podcasts, essays, courses, and Fellowship conversations, we will explore anxiety, despair, desire, identity, freedom, and the great task of becoming a self.
This season also marks the beginning of a new rhythm for Mythic Mind. Each season, we will pursue a common theme across philosophy, theology, literature, film, games, and conversation—approaching the same questions through different primary and secondary worlds.
One Theme. Many Worlds.

The Psychology of Søren Kierkegaard
Life in Anxiety and Despair
The centerpiece of our Fall Academy study is a guided exploration of Kierkegaard's Christian psychology: anxiety, despair, faith, identity, freedom, and what it means to become a self before God.
“Friendship is born at the moment when one person says to another: ‘What! You too? I thought I was the only one.’”
— C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves
